Why is QNAP's snapshot support better?
Snapshots are a must-have feature for modern storage systems. QNAP's snapshots help protect your folders, files, and iSCSI LUNs. In the event of malware attacks or unwanted changes, your stored data can be quickly reverted and restored to a specific point in time to ensure continuity.
